South West Coast Path Photographer of the Year
OVERALL WINNER
Jasmin Fernholz
Walking on sunshine, Tintagel, North Cornwall
I feel deeply grateful and honoured to win the overall competition 2024.
It makes me feel very thankful, that my Walking on Sunshine photo wins, because it was taken on a very special trip in a very special moment with a very special person last May in Tintagel. In 2013 I went on my first hiking trip along the South West Coast Path and immediately fell in love with it. So, I returned for three months in 2017, for three weeks in 2023, but last year was the most awesome two weeks, because for the first time I came back to England for a backpacking trip together with my Mum. I was so excited to show her all my favourite places, so we walked on some of the most wonderful parts of the path. She could never really understand my deep connection to England, but being there together with me made her instantly see why the South West Coast Path became my place to refuel my batteries for already so many times and feel refreshed and peaceful within the blink of an eye. To be surrounded by such precious nature, astonishing vantage points and so many beautiful villages and towns with lovingly run shops is absolutely the right remedy to calm down. But all this is only worth so much because of the people. There is no other country in the world we’ve been to, where people make you feel like coming home from the first moment. Everyone we met was so honestly warm and lovely, caring and helpful, really interested and always with good advice. It always felt like you met some good old friend and not a stranger, you see for the first time. That is, what I (and now my mum as well) love most about the “People and the Path”.
My “Walking on Sunshine” photo was taken on May 30th 2024 in Tintagel. We stayed there for two nights, so that we had enough time to visit Tintagel Castle, Merlin’s Caves, have some delicious pasties and stroll through the shops. But even though it was my fourth time in Tintagel, there are always new beautiful spots to discover. In the evening, we choose the path up to St Materiana’s Church in the hope to see a wonderful sunset. I was afraid that the clouds wouldn’t move fast enough and I had carried my 1.2 kg Sony A7III for nothing. But we enjoyed the warm light of the evening for taking photos, the gentle breeze, the perfect view over the coastline and the King Arthur statue in the distance, when suddenly out of nowhere an impressive capercaillie appeared. It’s been one of these once-in-a-lifetime-moments, when everything around you feels just perfect and if you are aware that the meaning of a capercaillie is to bring love into your life. It really means a lot to me that this goosebumps-moment now makes me the ‘South West Coast Path Photographer of the Year’.

Park Run Past the Map, Minehead, Somerset
The photograph was taken in Minehead on yet another cold, damp but bright day at the start (or finish!) of the South West Coast Path, with the monument marking the point for the Park Run runners to turn around and head back.
I run, hike and photograph the trails of the south west coast path whenever there is a chance. As a runner and photographer I have wanted to photograph the park run in Minehead for a really long time. Being able to combine my sport and hobby is a privilege and I guess that’s what inspired me to submit this shot. For me it was the epitome of people and path with each person doing their run on that morning for so many different reasons. There is something of a contrast from Minehead to the path and that is quickly experienced on the first section up North Hill onto Exmoor and I love this transition and how quickly you can find quiet, nature and other like minded people on the trails and I would say that is true of all the sections I have hiked myself. Historically, I have only really taken landscape photographs but more and more are drawn to pictures of people as they add a different aspect and mood to an image.
The shot itself was very much planned as I wanted to play with some longer exposure so I could make the most of the monument while having the movement of the runners bringing it to life. Balancing the bright sun, the aperture and the shutter speed was tricky and time wasn’t exactly on my side as at some point I was going to run out of runners! It was important to do the huge fists holding the map and all the detail justice in the image so I wanted them to be really sharp to give it the scale it deserved.
The shot was taken using the Fuji XT30ii with a 16-55mm lense. My aperture was F22 which is not normally one I favour but to get the longer shutter speed to get the blur I wanted and a low ISO of 80 to eliminate any noise it was my best option. Focal length was 31mm which is pretty much close to what we see normally.
Writing how it feels to have won this category is hard and I have probably written this sentence 20 times. I was pleasantly surprised and proud. I don’t do new year resolutions but I did decide this year I was going to call the year Bebrave2025 and entering this competition was part of that and here we are just before spring and being brave 2025 might just be paying off.

Ascent of Golden Cap, Golden Cap, Dorset
I have been walking the SWCP in stages since September 2020. There are 4 of us in our sixties now and we’ve become known as Foggys walkers in a reference to Last of the Summer wine.
The picture Ascent to Golden Cap was taken on 25th June 2024 when we stayed in Lyme Regis for 4 days to complete sections of the path from Sidmouth to Abbotsbury. The weather was very hot and this was a section we’d been looking forward to, Golden Cap has to be one of the highlights of the SWCP the highest point on the South coast. The climb was long and arduous in the heat and to reach the top felt like a moment in time on our journey on the SWCP!
I particularly love the lines of the different paths cut into the hill portraying the different routes we all take, I think the picture also shows the effort required to reach the summit. With the Dorset coast in the background showing just how far we’ve come. I was lucky enough to forge ahead to get all my comrades in shot, I’ve taken hundreds of pictures on our walks but this is one of my favourites; endeavour, graft, companionship and a sense of achievement in one shot.
I feel a real privilege to have been selected as a runner up in SWCP Photographer of the year there are endless spectacular shots to be taken on the path but this was the ideal category for me ‘people and the path’. The path for me is the beauty in every section but made special by the people on that journey.
Fortunately we still have about 150 miles to complete so a few more adventures to share. Say hello if you see us out on the path!

A walk along the beach at low tide, Perran Beach, North Cornwall
The photo was taken in mid-September. No special camera settings were used. The photo was taken with a Sony Alpha 6000.
The photo was taken at Perran Beach. It was a beautiful day during our hike from Minehead to Land’s End, which I did together with my friend Ayla in September on the South West Coast Path. The weather was very changeable that day, starting with a heavy rain shower. But we set off anyway, and along the way, we saw seals. Then, when the sun finally came out, we discovered this wonderful, vast beach. At that moment, we realized how much it had been worth setting off despite the rain and how beautiful the day would still become.
It was simply amazing to walk for meters along this stretch of sand, and the sunlight breaking through the clouds looked absolutely magical. The photo, with its many footprints, shows that other hikers had also walked along the beach that day, admiring its beauty just as we did. The moment captured in the photo was one of many wonderful experiences Ayla and I had on this journey, making it a perfect reflection of what we both associate with the National Trail.
I am very happy that the photo was selected. We had a wonderful time on the SWCP and are delighted to share this experience with others through the photo. Hopefully, it might even inspire others to go hiking there, explore the stunning landscape, and fall in love with it just as we did. At the same time, it is very exciting to have the opportunity to exhibit the photo in London, especially since my friend and I are from Germany. We are really looking forward to seeing the photo on display at Paddington Station!

Jurassic, Hooken Cliffs, East Devon
About halfway between the villages of Beer and Branscombe in East Devon the South West Coast Path starts to descend into a magical world of high cliffs and dense forest and scrub, known as Hooken Cliffs. The view westwards along the East Devon coast is fabulous. This is Jurassic Coast territory, and what I love about this photo is that it almost feels like you are walking into the land of the dinosaurs.
The image was taken on 22 September 2024, in the late afternoon. I remember walking down the coast path and just stopping in my tracks, faced with the sheer beauty of this scene. The sun was nearing the horizon, there was a slight haze in the air, and the sunlight was glinting off the white cliffs, bathing the greenery with a soft warm light. I just knew I was onto something with this scene.
I took the view from a few different angles and bracketed to get the right exposure. Post processing was mainly balancing the light. The photo was taken on an Olympus EM5 Mk III camera with an Olympus 12-45mm Pro lens, at a focal length of 25mm (50mm full frame equivalent).
I entered this image in the ‘Nature’ category as I thought the view – walking through woodland under high cliffs towards a distant beach – encompassed the spirit of the South West Coast Path. You feel at one with nature here, both humbled by its majesty and empowered by its beauty. What the photo can’t show is the sound of the sea, the wind on your face and the feeling of the warm sun on your skin.
What does it feel like to be selected as the winner of the Nature category of the SWCP Photographer of the Year competition? Nature is so much part of the experience of walking the South West Coast Path, and very important to me personally. To win the Nature category is, in a word, spectacular. I’ve taken so many photos along the path over the course of many years, and to have this one chosen as a category winner is the highlight of my year.

Jurassic Jewels, Kimmeridge Bay, Dorset
Walking the South West Coast Path is always a special experience. It offers some of the most breathtaking coastal landscapes in the British Isles, with sweeping beaches and an abundance of incredible wildlife. The Jurassic Coast holds a special place in my heart as it provides a unique window into the past, where the fossilised remains of ancient creatures can be found beautifully preserved in the rocks.
This photograph was taken on a cold January night at Kimmeridge Bay, a stunning location along the Jurassic Coast. Above the bay, the ‘Winter Circle’ (a striking asterism visible in the winter sky) rose in the southeastern sky, adding a celestial backdrop to the scene.
Determined to find the perfect fossil for my composition, I spent over an hour carefully searching the boulders and stones left exposed by the receding tide. To my delight, I eventually discovered a beautifully preserved ammonite, which aligned perfectly with Clavell Tower and the stars above. I used a Nikon D810A, a camera specially designed for astrophotography, and wide-angle lens to capture the photograph blending five 180-second exposures for the foreground with five 120-second tracked exposures for the sky, all taken from the same location on the beach.
Being selected as a runner-up in the SWCP Photographer of the Year is a true honour, and I feel incredibly excited that my photograph will be displayed alongside the other winning images at the exhibition at Paddington Station. I hope my image helps celebrate the beauty of the South West Coast Path, offering a moment of wonder to those passing through the station.

Sunbeam and Shadow, Pordennack Point, Land’s End, West Cornwall
I love to walk the coast path and immerse myself in Nature. The section between Land’s End and Porthgwarra is one of my favourite sections of coast path. The cliffs and granite rock formations are tremendous and this view to Enys Dodnan is spectacular. I entered this shot into Nature as it displays the spectacular scenery and cliff arch Enys Dodnan near Land’s End.
I visited this view point at the end of May as the sun is setting a long way to the north and I knew sunset would align with the arch. I wanted to capture the dramatic moment the sun set behind the arch and the projected shadow. The Coast Path is where I spend most of my leisure time, it’s central to my life, so I am delighted to be part of the exhibition.

Jumping for Joy, Labrador Bay, South Devon
Working as a skipper/marine wildlife guide for Devon Sea Safari, operating out of the Port of Teignmouth, I often come across local Short-beaked Common Dolphin pods. Occasionally, they get excited when they see the boat, and I get the rare opportunity to photograph these amazing wild animals as they majestically leap out of the water in unison. In this image, you can see an older calf breaching alongside its mother. I love the way the overcast light reflects off the sea surface, and the splashing water shows their motion in the split second they breach the surface. It’s incredibly difficult to capture these moments, but using a fast shutter speed really helps freeze the action.
The SWCP offers amazing opportunities to get up close with the fauna and flora of the South West along the path. It’s definitely worth jumping on a boat tour to see the coast from a different angle. Just ensure you are using an operation that is WISE-approved to ensure your skipper is trained in the correct approach for marine wildlife encounters.

A Rare Multi-coloured Visitor to South Devon, Hopes Nose, South Devon
Quite unusual for South Devon, but we occasionally see the majestic Puffin passing through our patch in the spring. They tend to be seen alongside the Guillemots and Razorbills that nest on the cliffs of Orestone Island.
In this image, I like the way the choppy water makes the Puffin appear as if it’s hiding, adding some mystery to the photo. The secret to capturing an image like this is to always have your camera ready for action. You only get a brief moment in time, and being ready makes all the difference. Autofocus can be a pain in this situation; using manual focus ensures the bird is the subject rather than the choppy sea.
THIRD PLACE (IMAGE 3)
Andrew Hocking
Reed Bunting, Marazion, West Cornwall
I entered this picture because I was pleased with the artistic nature of it – with the soft background allowing the subject to pop out and out of focus foreground leaves providing depth and softening the edge of the frame. I also like to photograph wildlife in this kind of overcast, diffused light. I do spend a lot of time on the SWCP – particularly in my home county of Cornwall. I like nothing better than to capture a coastal sunrise or sunset – or of course photograph our wildlife.
While I had my lens trained on a Heron at Marazion Marsh, this Reed Bunting landed a few meters from me for just a moment while frantically squabbling with another. I swung my lens around and managed to rattle off a few frames. This being my favourite. I was happier with this very rushed shot of the Reed Bunting than any of my heron photos – as I was able to capture a more artistic composition.
I’m amazed to have had one of my photos selected, most of my photography is of landscapes & seascapes, so to be placed in a wildlife competition is new for me!

Mark Gowan
Safety just around the corner, Newlyn, Cornwall
My winning photograph was taken on September 29, 2024, from Tolcarne Beach, Newlyn, Cornwall, looking back at Newlyn Harbour wall. I have a deep passion for capturing storm photography, and on this particular day, the weather forecast predicted wild conditions with strong southeast gales. The storm was later referred to by the media as “The Storm with No Name” because it wasn’t officially named by either the Irish or UK Met Offices. This unpredictability made it the perfect choice for the Climate Change category—highlighting how extreme weather events can arise suddenly and powerfully.
Living just a mile from the coast in Cornwall, I witness firsthand the impact of storm-driven erosion and the challenges it poses to our coastal landscapes. For this shot, I used a Nikon Z50 mirrorless camera paired with a Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 lens. The conditions were extreme—severe gales and driving rain made it incredibly difficult to shoot. I constantly had to retreat to my car for shelter before braving the elements again!
Being selected as the winner of the Climate Change category in the SWCP Photographer of the Year competition is an incredible honour. This recognition reinforces the importance of documenting the shifting climate and the growing number of extreme weather events that are reshaping our coastlines. I hope my image sparks conversation about the changes we are witnessing and the urgent need for action.

Chapmans Pool ii, Chapmans Pool, Jurassic Coast
‘Chapmans Pool ii’ was entitled like that as the significant slip could almost be the start of another Chapmans pool though a long way to go and hopefully won’t get that far. Extreme weather is a favourite photographic genre for myself with the spectacle and unique shots it can create, however the flip side of this is the damage and erosion along the coastline it can cause along with disruption to businesses as well as our enjoyment of the path and scenery. The image is of Chapmans pool area, taken from the drone back in April 2024. I was out on a walk along the coast and flew from Houns Tout area and whilst aware that the slip had already occurred was still surprised at the size of the slip and damage to the path.

Free falling, West Lulworth, Dorset
As I stood there on the cliff, watching the shore slowly but inexorably collapse into the sea, I was reminded of the infinite freedom one experiences when free-falling, like a parachute jump: once you’ve jumped, there’s no turning back, the fall is irreversible. It’s a wonderfully uplifting, euphoric feeling. While it’s a terrifyingly vulnerable feeling. As with climate change itself – on the surface, a phenomenon may look wonderful, but the consequences of the process are terrifying in their profundity, with little or no possibility of reversal. And so it is with this fantastically stunning coastal landscape, with hikers increasingly encountering diversions and closures due to life-threatening rockfalls.
For now, I can hardly believe that my picture will actually be there in London, at Paddington station. I am incredibly happy and honoured by the jury’s decision, as this is the first photo competition of my life, and I have never entered a picture of mine in any competition before. I can only compare the feeling to the joy I felt when I jumped out of a helicopter from 4000 metres above Lake Balaton (Hungary’s largest lake) a few years ago. And this prize only motivates me even more to walk the whole South West Coast Path as soon as possible – while I still can.

Clifftop Down, Rinsey, West Cornwall
The photo was taken on the coast path between Rinsey and Porthleven in the Autumn. The light was so amazing at the time. The camera used was a DJI Mini 3 Pro drone. The image is one of my favourites taken with my drone. I have had so many positive comments on this image from friends and family. Any top-down drone shot shows a scene in a unique way. That’s what I love about drone photography. I’m really excited to have been chosen as a winner. It’s inspired me to get back out there and try and capture more stunning photos.

Shrouded Shores: St Aldhelm’s in the mist, St Aldelm’s Head, Jurassic Coast
This image was captured early on Boxing Day morning 2024. Wanting to walk off some of the excesses of Christmas Day I ventured out to a favourite local spot to try and get above the grey cloud and mist that was shrouding most of the local area. Thankfully for a short period of time there was enough of a gap to allow the drone to fly and capture this scene with the early golden light catching the mist rolling over the headland and cottages which in my eyes creates a fairly unique scene. The image was captured on my DJI Mavic 3 pro drone.
Photography is a great passion of mine which helps me forget about the daily grind of life and can tell a story for others to see that are perhaps less fortunate to be able to witness what I have local to me, so I’m very thankful to be recognized as a runner up in this competition and hope it has a positive impact for people wanting to visit the South West Coast Path.

Summer has Arrived, Newquay, North Cornwall
This image was taken at Fistral Beach in Newquay at the beginning of the summer holidays, July 29th 2024. Newquay is a place that I am always drawn to, its beautiful sandy beaches and surf make it the perfect place for people to visit. I wanted to capture the beauty and texture of the crystal clear sea while also creating a side narrative for you to get lost in. I used a DJI Mavic Mini Pro 3. The coastal landscape along the South West Coast Path, especially in Cornwall is a place where many people are drawn to. Whether its locals who surf the coastline frequently or holiday makers who visit for the beautiful beaches. I entered this image as I feel it captures the perfect day at the beach. Crystal clean water, a little bit of surf and full of people enjoying themselves.
It’s an amazing feeling to be selected as a runner up in the ‘Sky Shot’ category of the SWCP photographer of the year competition. The protection of our coastlines in the South West and around the UK are so important. I am excited to be a part of the exhibition that celebrates the beauty of our coastline.

Ayla Rinke
Natural Mirror, Polzeath, North Cornwall
The picture was taken in Polzeath on the way from our campsite (Robbie Loves Camping) towards the beach in the evening. I don’t know the exact time. It was shortly before sunset. It was a quick picture, because I noticed the water on the street late. My friend Johanna is walking in front.
My Camera is a Sony A6000. I just bought it a few weeks before the trip second hand on ebay. I think I just had the automatic mode on.
It was one of the few pictures I took that showed the urban environment. In this moment I thought it doesn’t look typical Cornish. So, it could be interesting to show a different modern site of the architecture on the SWCP. The wooden house in the sunlight looked quite new, but still fitting into the environment. The urban environment has a big influence on the experience I think, because its architecture affects the Perspective in real life as well as in a picture.
It feels unreal to have won this category, because I just took pictures for fun and didn’t know about the competition in advance, so I didn’t expect to win at all. My friend saw the competition on Instagram, so we just thought why not try it!

Sunset at St Michael’s Mount, Marazion, West Cornwall
12th May 2024, I feel that St Michael’s Mount is synonymous with the Cornish urban environment both present and past. It is one of the prominent way markers for many taking the steps of the South West Coastal Path. Its tidal causeway is representative of the experiences requiring timing of the seas to navigate the path and to continue your journey. Every so often as a photographer you know the shot you have just captured depicts the moment you’re experiencing. This was one of those times. I used a Canon EOS 6D Mark II and edited within Lightroom Classic. I have been an amateur travel photographer for over 20 years but this is the first time I have entered a photo into any form of competition. I am elated to receive a runner up award for an art and a passion that I have dedicated so much time to.

Path to Polruan Quay, Polruan, South Cornwall
This photo was taken at Garrett steps near Polruan Quay on the 13th of September 2024. I used my smartphone (iPhone 11) to take this photo as I don’t own a separate digital camera! I edited it to a black and white photo, because the strength and texture of the lines are emphasised when the eyes are not distracted by any colour.
We had arrived in Polruan after walking across the wide open cliffs from Lansallos. These dark, narrow steps were a big contrast from the bright, wide open spaces we had walked for the last 5 miles.
The top of the steep steps held an enticing glimpse of the ferry we were about to catch from the quay to take us across the river to picturesque Fowey, seen in the distance. We were looking forward to refreshments in Fowey, and a swim and rest at Readymoney Cove.
I submitted this photo because many types of ‘Urban Lines’ can be seen. There are the lines in the brickwork leading the eye to look at the view beyond; the lines cast by the shadows of the building; lines in the path and steps leading down to the quay. Then there are lines of cars parked on the quayside, and lines of boats moored in the harbour. There are lines of people descending the steep steps (my son and his fiancée in front of me can be seen in the photo, whilst my husband was waiting patiently behind me whilst I took the photo). There are also lines of people queueing to get on the ferry.
I think it’s important to include people in the urban lines photo category, because in contrast to the isolation of the remote sections of the SWCP, where often you can walk for mikes without seeing another soul, you always see more and more people the closer you get to civilisation!
Having urban sections of the path to walk is a welcome, interesting and rapid changes of scenery from the coastal views.
The urban environment also provides shelter from the elements, and offers comfortable places for refreshments, rest and recuperation, such as The Lugger public house captured in this photo.
I am thrilled and delighted to be a runner up in the competition. It was totally unexpected because I’m not a photographer, but I just love capturing memories of our favourite parts of the path, whilst my husband and I complete the challenge of walking all 630 miles in small sections. I may consider taking up photography as a hobby now though, and buying myself a better camera!

Path to Kellan Head, Port Isaac, North Cornwall
The photo was taken on the path leading up to Kellan Head – a section of the path between Port Isaac and Port Quin. It was taken on the 10th of July 2024 – day 12 of my thru hike of the path.
Having won the Young POTY last year, I was keeping my eye out for interesting scenes while I did my thru hike of the whole path. The leading lines and great lighting instantly jumped out at me as something that would make a fantastic photo. I took the photo using my iPhone 12 mini. The coast path is so varied that while walking it would almost be impossible not to come away with one or two great images if that’s what you’re looking for.
It feels amazing to be chosen as the young POTY especially as this is now two years in a row. I feel a big connection to the path especially now my friend and I completed a thru hike of the path last summer.

The Ghost of Plastic Waste, Milford, North Devon
The photo was taken on 30th November 2024. Windblown, after walking the coast path from Hartland Quay, with a detour due to a bridge being washed away from torrential rains. I was fascinated and horrified by the amount of plastic caught in the barb wire fence from the start of the hill, wondering how much has ended up in the ocean. My mind was already thinking of climate change due to the severe rain the south west had just had.
I used a Nikon Z8, then I inverted the image in photoshop as I wanted to make the plastic, ghost like as it is haunting our environment. The fields turned purple to represent the hidden poisoning of our earth by our non-thoughtful usage of plastic and other products that contribute to climate change. The skies darkened as well giving a sense of foreboding. I think as a consumer of plastic; we do not think that the making of plastic has an impact on our climate. We are more concerned with the damage microplastics and plastic waste causes. When plastics are produced, carbon dioxide and other greenhouse pollutants are released during the extraction of the oil, its manufacture and when it is recycled/disposed of. The combination of plastic production and its disposal both influence biodiversity and climate change. It feels fantastic to be a runner up, I really enjoy taking environmental images of our world and it has given me the confidence to develop my photographic skills further.
